Left to right: tiger milk tea creme brulee, wintermellon with honey boba  booty Shaker (hot)
Megan L.

Great service, delicious customizable drinks that are worth the price for it's size. As someone who is lactose intolerant, it is awesome that the standard dairy option is non dairy. Tiger milk tea $9.15 32oz Winter melon milk tea $7.95 32oz + honey boba $0.80 Bootea Shaker $6.15 20oz Free shared parking lot

Mango Coconut Dream
Michelle B.

Came for the viral mango coconut drink. I liked that you can adjust the sweetness. The sago and mochi were cooked well, chewy and not overcooked. Good amount of fresh mango chunks, it didn't taste frozen. The mango flavor on the mango slush part could have been stronger, it tasted watered down. $8.30 for the drink so it's pricey. Overall it was good but the Heytea mango coconut boom is still superior

One of the OG tea shops in SGV and it's pretty hidden in a massive plaza. The plaza it resides in nowadays is not too busy, you'll often find tons of parking where Tastea is in the back. Their menu is huge and you could take a long time to even get through the entire thing. I recommend their matchas as one of their signature drinks. Staff here is great, they're very friendly and quick as well. My partner and my orders were out swiftly as we visited to get their BOGO on National Ice Tea Day. Portions are huge which was a shocker to me even though I've seen the cups before. Very refreshing although it's the ice tea tasted bitter for some parts. Overall, decent drinks, and definitely a spot you can visit if you want variety of drinks.

Jasmine milk tea with green bobas
Christina H.

First time here. Caught my attention with the Grade A by the window. I got the Jasmine milk tea 20oz with green bobas. Bobas taste fresh and soft. You can actually taste the tea. It's located in the plaza where 99 ranch market is at. The store is next to MPO eyecare optometry. Plenty of parking. The store isn't very big. There are only 4 tables and a few seats. Overall, not bad. Service was fast and server was nice. There are board games if you decide to sit down and chill.

The food is good. The service is perfect. The ambiance is excellent. Amada is a hard working server and barista.

Had the Taro Fantasy and it was a Fantasy indeed. It took me to a place I've never been before and it was Delicious! I love Taro so much that I guess you can say that I'm kind of addicted to it lol. Plenty of parking spaces in the Plaza area here. Plenty of drink choices and flavors to try. Would highly recommend this place to all who is searching for a "Tastea" drink. Service was very good here. They pretty much helped me on things to try but I just wanted my Taro lol.

Evelyn B.

I really like Tastea for all their drinks and snacks. As for the drinks, they give a good amount of toppings and they have a strong tea flavor. It doesn't taste watered down at all. Tastea is 626 OG staple and I really appreciate the affordability, efficiency in receiving the items, and the fact that you can just chill at the store. There's a good amount of seating and they provide games as well. Not pictured but I do really enjoy their snacks as well. Their popcorn chicken, fries, and newest pizza rollz are delicious. They're hot and fresh and packed with so much flavor. It's perfectly crispy which makes them my favorite guilty pleasure snack to enjoy accompanied by the boba.

Thai Milk Tea

I ordered a 32 oz Thai Milk Tea but it seems like i'm missing at least an eighth of what the cup seems to be able to hold.

Wasima K.

I have been to this shop off and on, mostly when shopping at the 99 Ranch, which is adjacent. I like that the staff is very ready to answer questions about the drinks, making recommendations and making sure you enjoy what you ordered. Also a plus for me that their base creamer is non-dairy, and not with an extra charge. Most recently I tried their Vietnamese ice coffee with banana foam. My understanding is that they use fresh banana and banana pudding in the foam. It's an unexpected combination to me, but it works well. They also helped me adjust the amount of sweetness since the banana foam is sweetened. The coffee is strong and it's really nice to have fresh flavors vs. a syrup. It's a great stop for a treat.

Tiger boba
May C.

One of my favorite places to get boba. Service was fast and friendly! Clean environment! Plenty of parking spaces. So many drink choices and flavors to try. Tried most of their drinks, and they're good. Tiger boba 5/5

Rosa R.

My new favorite item to order - Peach Me Sweet Tea - love the pieces of fruit and the perfect amount of sweetness! This drink is light and refreshing! Customer Service was good!

Muddy Melons.  Forgot to take a picture before drinking it lol

The pastries/baked goods & cream puffs are definitely their specialty or signature/highlight. Service has always been good. Never an issue. They do run out of stuff in the last hour or two on the weekends. Parking. There's underground parking. Street parking is limited. Both Valley Blvd and Del Mar are busy streets. Seating. Bar inside.

Blueberry Ricotta Danish 4.5/5 Gotten this one multiple times as well. Good. Pain Au Crossiant 4.25/5 Decent. Buttery Pressed Croissant 4/5 At first, I thought it was so-so. It's rather plain and simple. However, after pairing it with my Nespresso, thought it was not bad. Good pairing. Plain Croissant 4/5 It's alright/fine. Bf likes the plain croissant from Tierra Mia better and I like it from Artisanal Goods by CAR. CREAM PUFFS: The cream puffs are not cheap. 4pcs for $16. So, $4 a pop. They're tasty and more exquisite than other brand's cream puffs though. It's different taste and texture, so a bit hard to compare. We still like them. Flavor & taste vary vastly depending on which one you get. 4pcs for $16 6pcs for $23 8pcs for $30 Lemon 4.5/5 We both like it Dark Chocolate 4.5/5 Good. Taro Salted Egg Yolk 4.25/5 Not bad. Oolong Tea 4.25/5 Kinda liked it. I can see it as acquired taste, but kinda like the interesting/unique tea flavor. DRINKS: Hazelnut Praline Latte (hot) 4.25/5 Kinda like the taste the best among all the ones we've tried from here. However, $7.20 (before tax & tip) for a small cup is a bit steep. Pistachio Cream Top Latte 4/5 Liked it slightly better than the black sesame cream top. Black Sesame Cream Top Latte 4/5 It's alright/fine. Sounded good. Hot Latte 4/5 Fine. Nothing special or bad. Kinda ordinary, but serves its purpose as a simple hot latte.

The rice ball had a fun chewy soft sticky rice with a nice crisp pan fry and was filled with like a bulgolgi like beef and it paired really well with the bright herby sauce that came with it. Spam musubi is one of my faves and is hard to nail but this one was yummy. Good ratios of salty spam, egg, and more fun chewy sticky rice. It even had a layer of Furikake for some extra flavor that I liked. The pandan strawberry cooler was nice and snowy, had plenty of coconutty vanillay pandany flaves complemented by the bright strawberry puree. MNM. Overall this place is pretty good.

The musubis were made to order since the sticky rice patties were pan fried.

Their matcha jasmine was quite divine too. The seasonal menu is definitely a creative way to expand on their current drink rotation! Coming back for that pandan matcha!

Unfortunately, the black tea tapiochi was a bit of a letdown. I was hoping for a more pronounced tea flavor, but I couldn't detect any tea notes at all. It was a little too sweet for my liking. My daughter ordered the Popcorn Milk Tea with brown sugar tapiochi. I took a sip and could taste a subtle hint of popcorn, which was definitely interesting and unique. However, I found it a bit too sweet for my taste. That said, this is probably more of a personal preference, as I generally gravitate toward simpler, less sweet drinks rather than overly complex flavor combinations. Staff was extremely friendly and patient with me while I took my time to decide what k want to order. They had samples for us to try which was very much appreciated. Overall, I really enjoyed the Calamansi Oolong Tea and appreciated the creativity behind their menu. I just wish the tapiochi had a more distinct tea flavor and wasn't quite so sweet. I'd definitely consider coming back for the calamansi oolong.

Matcha flavor comes through, although there is more strawberry than matcha flavor. Still I enjoyed it. It was super creamy too, but I know some people may not like that. Matchas are made with Dona Matcha. MATCHA KINU This was similar to the Ichigo Matcha in texture. Heavy cold foam on top and lightly sweetened. Maybe because it was my second matcha cold foam drink, I was full and tired of drinking it. Matcha was good, but very creamy as expected. Matcha was quite mellow with very sweet matcha flavor, grassiness and very light bitterness. Still very mellow overall. Personally, I prefer the Ichigo Matcha over this one. AMBIANCE + SEATS Most of the seats were white boucle chairs and sofa. Metal tables. Seats were comfy, but dirty. One wooden table with wooden chairs for cleaner seats. There were a good amount of tables and seats. One unisex bathroom available. LOCATION + PARKING On Garfield + Main. It is along the street, so you will need to turn into a parking garage or street park. The best parking spot I found was on First + Main. Right across Days Inn by Wyndham and The Chicken Koop. Free parking. There were EV charging stations too. There is parking right behind Three Fields, but it is so tiny, I wouldn't recommend parking there. Plus, it would be difficult to get in and get out. It was so crammed in there. CUSTOMER SERVICE It was friendly, but the barista seemed a bit impatient as I was deciding on what to get as he tapped his fingers on the table. Then he tells me, "No, take your time." Sure, man. Would I come back? Of course when I'm in the area and when I'm craving for the Ichigo Matcha. It was delish!
